Dům U Nováků, Art Nouveau department store in New Town, Prague, Czech Republic.

The Dům U Nováků building features decorative elements with floral motifs, stained glass doors, and ornate metal balconies across its exterior facade.

Czech architect Osvald Polívka transformed the classical revival structure into an Art Nouveau masterpiece during extensive renovations completed in 1904.

Artist Jan Preisler contributed to the building's design through intricate mosaic wall coverings that demonstrate early twentieth-century Czech artistic expression.

Located on Vodíčkova Street near Wenceslaus Square, the department store combines retail shopping with architectural appreciation in central Prague.

The metal balconies, stained glass elements, and mosaic decorations underwent precise restoration to maintain their original Art Nouveau characteristics.
